"What I particularly value in Social Science Informationis its sheer range, high-quality eclecticism and unpredictability. You can count on it to take you into new by-ways and across disciplines in a spirit of rigorous intellectual generalism." Professor Philip Schlesinger,Director, Stirling Media Research Institute, University of Stirling, UK
